Les Roches Sculptés, Rothéneuf, Ille-et-Vilaine, Brittany, France, Europe
08/2010

With a tidal range of more than 10 meters in the Bretagne, coastal details normally hidden below water will be revealed every day - an endless selection of motifs. This compilation of blue mussels and barnacles at the low tide in Rothenéneuf appeared as a smiling, impish gnome's face to me.
